Great Britain: Charles II gold 2 Guineas 1678/7 MS61 NGC,...
Description
Resplendent 2 Guineas of Charles II
Charles II gold 2 Guineas 1678/7 MS61 NGC, KM443.1, S-3335.
A highly distinguished example of this perennial favorite, notable
for its strong sense of originality evident in every engraved
detail. Though not as rare as its "Elephant and Castle"
counterpart, specimen on offer remains incredibly elusive in Mint
State. Cool, lemon-toned brilliance shimmers across the protected
regions, while the reverse displays particularly strong qualities,
fully meriting consideration for a higher designation. Ranking
among the finest certified, with only three surpassing the present,
we anticipate spirited bidding crossing the auction block.Metal: Gold
Diameter: 31mm
Weight: 16.7g
